The following steps allow you to mount a new hard drive to the /home path and successfully move the old data to the new storage space.

透過以下的步驟將可以將新的硬碟掛載到 /home 路徑上，並順利將舊的資料移動到新的儲存空間裡面。

sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb

2. mount to new path

sudo mkdir /mnt/newstorage
sudo mount /dev/sdb /mnt/newstorage

3. copy old data (sda) to sdb

sudo rsync -av /home/ /mnt/newstorage/

4. get sdb UUID

sudo blkid

5. update fstab file

append this string to /etc/fstab

UUID=<Your-sdb-UUID> /home ext4 defaults 0 2

sudo reboot
